Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
From the reviews: "It is an original, quite attractive approach to science dissemination. ... it provides a logical, step-by-step explanation of the basic principles and parameters of the internal dynamics of the earth, and when events are not yet clearly understood, it says so as well. ... As may be expected of pocket editions on basic sciences, special attention is given to make the text concise, witty ... . Many viewpoints are original, based on thermodynamics as the unifying scientific approach ... ." (Michiel Dusar, Geologica Belgica, Vol. 6 (3-4), 2003) "This small format book ... conveys a great deal of information about what makes the ground shake and explode. This is ... straightforward, accessibly written text." (SciTech Book News, September, 2002) "How solid is Earth? Schick answers this question in this succinct look at the hows and whys of geological disturbances.

Rolf Schick ... adopts a scientific, yet accessible, approach to explaining some of the fundamental theories regarding why the Earth shakes and why volcanoes explode."

Why do they occur in certain areas and not in others? How can we, within reason, protect ourselves from their devastation? And how far have we come, and how far can we go, in predicting when they will strike? For the reader who wants a concise and accessible guide to what makes the ground shake and explode, this is the perfect introduction.
